The way language evolves is fascinating; words can change meaning over time in unexpected ways, as evidenced by the surprising misunderstandings of a simple request.
Language is fluid; as we age, we see shifts in meaning. For instance, I learned LOL was 'lots of love' and not 'laugh out loud', highlighting the challenge.
In the world of lexicography, every word comes with a historical precedent. Terms like 'thong' shift meanings as they undergo cultural transformation.
Words possess a surprising adaptability, and just like my friend's mishap at Walmart, contextual misunderstandings arise from the ongoing evolution and fluidity of language.
